But I did so using a long-lived access token directly on the Dakboard blocks — which is not great for a couple of reasons:</p> <ul> <li>Tokens have no access scope, meaning they grant full admin access to everything</li> <li>The token was stored on Dakboard&rsquo;s servers</li> </ul> <p>I want Dakboard to be able to pull data from my locally hosted Home Assistant, but I&rsquo;d like to restrict access.</p> <p>I did this using Caddy as a reverse proxy 🤓</p>
